Re: [Summary-Talk] stuffed log files

[Jason Linhart <jason@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Summary supports log files compressed with Zip, GZip, and BZip2. It does 
not support StiffIt format compression, but newer versions of StuffIt can 
compress in the other formats as well as in it's own format so it is 
possible that you can keep using StuffIt, just switch formats.

Good Luck
Jason

Dr. Seuss books . . . can be read and enjoyed on several levels. For
example, 'One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish' can be deconstructed
as a searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system.
